The switch-over to using OSGi will happen after the release of 2.1. So work will start at the end of this year but will mainly be done the first quarter of next year. > I know you already used spring in the platform? We do. The main effect will be to switch from using Raven and Taverna-specific extensions to Spring, to using an OSGi Framework and the OSGi extensions to Spring (called Spring Dynamic Modules). Using OSGi will give us a standard mechanism for classloader separation, dynamic loading of plugins, inbuilt registration mechanism, and lots of other good stuff. It will also allow us to try out interesting things like using Distributed OSGi to have the Taverna core split between different machines. > Regards, > > Wei Alan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
